This Friday, the alluring Haunt Bar, a mysterious liquor-soaked entity made up of cocktail nerds Heather and Kevin Gavagan, will make an appearance at Letty's on Shamrock (inside the old Pike's Pharmacy) for Haunt's first pop-up cocktail party. What began as a hobby creating sophisticated adult beverages at parties for friends has turned into a rather intoxicating obsession for classic cocktails and whimsical, yet intelligent, creations deserving of a wider audience.

The Gavagans are in the process of finding a forever home for Haunt Bar in hopes of reviving the lost art of the cocktail and providing an elegant space to stimulate the senses and inspire conversation. Until then, they have chosen to host pop-up events where you can sip on a Sazerac or an original creation like the Gaffney's Folly, a cocktail infused with peach shrub, cognac, rye, lemon and cinnamon syrup. Haunt Bar promises to leave you in good spirits.

Letty's is located at 2121 Shamrock Drive. Drinks will be served 9 p.m.-1 a.m. and Letty's will offer a full menu until 10 p.m.. To learn more about Haunt Bar events, follow them on Facebook and Twitter or visit www.hauntbar.com
